On November 1,2016 Diana Burke a Board Director of P.A.C.E.Canada delivered over J$4.5 million in cheques for schools on behalf of the organization to Mrs. Trisha Williams-Singh, Chair of the Early Childhood Commission (ECC). These funds were donated to 106 Early Childhood schools across all parishes in Jamaica.
This represents the second donation by P.A.C.E. in 2016 for a total of JA$9.7 million sent to 239 schools across Jamaica.
In 2017 P.A.C.E. Canada will be celebrating our 30th anniversary supporting early childhood schools and teachers in Jamaica through donations, teacher bursaries and training, and computer education programs for the students.
P.A.C.E. is proud to be a partner with the Ministry of Education in promoting early childhood education.

Jahmona ECDC was visited on November 3rd by our AAS Chair Diana Burke to update them about P.A.C.E. and learn how the donations they receive are being used.
The Principal, Mr. Steeles, explained that funds are still needed to complete items such as floors, bathrooms and fence security.
These are all part of the requirements for certification by the Jamaica Ministry of Education.
